Need help converting about 5K Word docs to pdf's, and in doing so, save them as 2 pages per sheet.

Hi,

This would probably be troublesome to do automatically with Acrobat ( although technically possible), due to how acrobat functions on a desktop you would need to cope with restarting (and/or crashing) as you processed that many documents, I would be tempted to look at the API offerings from Adobe, as you could create a small script to call the required api and it would be more stable.

I would look into Powerautomate from Microsoft.

You can view pdfs in Acrobat and reader as spread pages, If you want to have 2 pages on a single page, I would place the single page pdf into a double wide InDesign file and export a new pdf, do this once, then re-link for the other documents (assuming they are all the same page count). If you are trying to produce "printer's spreads" you can print to booklet from Acrobat, if you are sending this to a commercial printer, send them single pages and they will handle the imposition.
